Please stop using Reddit, GGG

Some of PoE's best changes such as monster health bars, 250% 4L buff and more loot allocation options would never have made it through the reddit hivemind

What are you talking about? Reddit was most behind loot allocation options and health bars.

You seem to be generalizing and having a really wrong idea about PoE's subreddit.

I realize browsing the upvote culled reddit threads are more positive and fun, but in the end responding to criticism is the only way to keep evolving and improving PoE.

Oh boy..these forums here must be so much better then right?

I laughed. Oh the irony...the irony..

I don't see anything wrong with the GGG team using both. The bygone age of a single unified information channel no longer suffices. As for criticism, constructive criticism is what posters should aim for, if they want to see potential results.

That might work, if they used both

These forums have tons of 13 year olds who post completely immature stuff and just insult people with childish insults.

Actually, I see quite a bit wrong with the developers using Reddit to send out information. I think it is crap that you can read the official forums and not find out some crucial bit of information that is posted by the developers on a third-party website.

They should just post more on here. So many times I see a thread title that sounds interesting and it has the GGG symbol next to it. I click on the ggg symbol to see what GGG has to say about the topic and the only thing that comes up is them telling people to stay on topic or stop harassing other people. It's quite frustrating when you wanted to see what they had to say about the topic and they are silent but obviously saw it.
Later on in the grapevine you might find out they said something about it on Reddit.

That tells us so much more about the quality of discussion on the forum than it does about GGG.

Not really. You have the same thing on reddit but it gets downvoted to oblivion.

GGG runs this forum. If they want to get rid of the toxicity they can do so at any time.
